I have it, however I lost all the labels for my strawberries I don't know which is which. Truthfully they all taste good to me when fully ripe.

Albion is one of the berries that excelled in my trial last year. It's very good eating with nice size and color. It also started producing very early for me, almost right after planting in the dead of Winter.

Nourse has it, but they don't list it in their top 10. I received several starts from UCD last fall and they are just now starting to produce. I gave my sons some Direktor Paul Wallbaum and their eyes just about popped out. Quite a bit smaller but oh so good.
